Identifying Photo of Shumacher Ferrari

Post

I have an old photo of a Ferrari with Shumacher's name in the Marlboro logo. An ex of mine found this while she was clearing an office in London sometime in 2000, so I have no idea of the source or how many of these are floating around.

I'd like to know where this was taken (I'm guessing Fiorano?), is it the F310 (and not the F310B), and is it worth anything? (it's slightly longer than A4 and has some slightly damaged corners).

I believe it's an F310, they switched to a high nose on the 310 and then carried that over to the B I think.

1996 F310. I suppose it's pre-season. Don't know the location though, the car has Marlboro sponsorship on it, yet the board in the background has the censored variant. It's most likely Fiorano, the advertisement boards all show Ferrari sponsors, plus the factory in the background shows Italian text(I think?)

I'm not sure why this is being asked as it is one of the official images when Schumacher joined Ferrari. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/motorsp ... 175499.stm

It's a photo from the F310 presentation at Fiorano, January (IIRC) 1996

Gorgeous? That car was widely regarded as an ugly turd, with the high sides around the driver and the bizarre sidepod design. This was definitely not one of the pretty cars of that year!

I remember that that year the Jordan and Williams looked slim and fast, the mclaren looked so-so and the Ferrari (and Tyrrell, Arrows) we're trucks compared to them... the high nose half way trough the season didn't help)
